Is Byrd the word?

I'm still not sure how I feel about the addition of Paul Byrd to our pitching rotation. On the one hand, he was impressive last season and in the post-season pitching for Cleveland. On the other hand, an admitted HGH user (yes, he is truthful that it was prescribed; however, it was prescribed by a shady dentist in Florida).

As I write, it's the bottom of the sixth, Toronto is leading 3-1. All three runs were scored via the home run - a two-run shot and a solo homer. The Red Sox offense has been absent against "Doc" Halliday. Where oh where are our bats?
